Very Nice tips, Thx !!

[@sonicbloomtuts]

You're welcome. Glad you like them.😀

[@markusschloesser]

besides the great usage tips for the arp, my main take away was the legato button to fill a pattern, didn't know about that (only been using Live since 2014 🤯🤯🙄🙄😂😂)

[@sonicbloomtuts]

Well, now you know. 😉

[@wrigna1]

Brilliant! 🙌

[@sonicbloomtuts]

Thank you. I hope it showed you something new to implement in your tracks.

Thank you! And go for it! Btw, you can shoot me an email through my website to connect, but I'm under an NDA, so I can't give you concrete tips or anything.

Ta! 🙂

[@EannaButler]

Ooooh!

[@sonicbloomtuts]

Sounds like you like it. 😉

[@EannaButler]

@@sonicbloomtutsHa yeah, I found myself saying that out loud at one point in the vid, I think it was the simplicity of the "trap hats" idea with multiple arpeggiators on different divisions, and the 'humanisation' trick of loading a few hat samples in to a rack Combining those two tricks - where each pad is a rack itself - nested racks! - would lead one to an "Ooooh!" realisation! 🙂

[@sonicbloomtuts]

@@EannaButler Yes, exactly. Combine several of the tricks together and you can do so many cool things. The two hi-hat tricks plus some automation to fine tune... :)

[@EannaButler]

@@sonicbloomtuts Thanks. Love these ‘injections’ of ideas from you 🙏

[@themetalbox3359]

At min 1:40 give the impression i can make some native music (n.n)

[@sonicbloomtuts]

Sure, why not? They've got way more dynamics going than your every techno. 😉

[@KorhanErel]

I will never understand why Ableton does not let us set velocity decay time in sync with the BPM.

[@sonicbloomtuts]

That would definitely be a useful feature for sure. We could still calculate the right decay time that fits the BPM, but synced would be way more convenient.

[@KorhanErel]

@@sonicbloomtuts definitely more useful than having to calculate. It would take an Ableton programmer probably 5 minutes to add this, as it's a code segment that's used all over the place in Live, even in the arpeggiator itself.

[@KorhanErel]

@@sonicbloomtuts on the other hand, I like the fact that it can go up to 60 seconds.

[@sonicbloomtuts]

@@KorhanErel It's not the devs making the decisions. If you're a beta tester, make a thread in Centercode and I'm sure you'd get upvotes. Hopefully enough to get it implemented.

[@sonicbloomtuts]

@@KorhanErel Yes, that's sweet.
